Consider accepting just the city/state name? I wasted half my time guessing Colorado and San Diego before I caught on.

That's not much time to guess 7 teams, especially for people whose forte ain't baseball/sports.

I think that's the point. It shouldn't be a typing race, but you also don't want to leave so much time that people with no solid foundation of knowledge can just keep typing answers until they get them all right. I'm a pretty huge baseball fan, and I finished with 47 seconds left. There's only 32 teams, and only seven right answers. The timer gives you enough time to type at least 20 even with blind guessing. If you're guessing more than 20 teams for seven answers, you don't know enough to really earn the points.

I did as well on this quiz as these teams have done at winning the World Series.

and then I cheated my way to 5 points because that's what I learned from Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa.

I see you did well enough to remember them. Those guys have had a more significant impact on the game than, say, the Washington Nationals.

Although, after the departures of Scherzer, Harper, Rendon, Turner, and now Soto, it looks like Nationals fans should be happy they caught lightning in a bottle.

Unfortunately those three players will be in the hall of fame, and Pete Rose won't be.

Doubtful. Bonds, while he still has 3 years of eligibility, has been well short to this point in receiving enough votes for induction. He was the best all around player of the three mentioned.

I agree that Rose deserves to be there, but that's just my opinion and the Hall certainly has the right to maintain the standards they see fit. He is definitely guilty of being a bonehead.

The legacy of 1919 is strong. If sports can't convince people they're unscripted, most of the magic that drives the money evaporates pretty quickly. That's why players/managers gambling on their own games will continue to be treated as the most serious crime.

In some weird twisted way, Seattle fans are the worst off -- the hapless Seattle Pilots (1969) playing in a horrible AAA ballpark (ironically named Sick's Stadium) were "stolen" from us and became the Milwaukee Brewers, who still haven't won since 1970. And the 2019 season is a "rebuilding" year for the Mariners. But don't you have to build something before you can rebuild it?

Amazing that the Mariners had Randy Johnson, Alex Rodriguez, and Ken Griffey Jr. on the same team. Then they lost them all to free agency. But somehow, without those players, they set a Major League record by winning 116 games in a single season... and lost to the Yankees in the postseason and never even made it the World Series. And now they are in a multi-decade cycle of futility. Sad story really.

We constantly build talent, not for a World Series, but for the Yankees to purchase said talent.

If Nelson Cruz wasn't more concerned about bumping into the right-field wall instead of catching David Freese's fly ball, the Rangers would've won the World Series in 2011. Needlessly short-armed a completely catchable ball that would've ended Game 6.

Absolutely inexcusable for a professional outfielder not to have been ready for that moment. Catch ball. Win World Series. I don't care if a train is coming. You sell out to catch the ball and worry about recovering during the off-season.

I guess steroids don't give you focus and determination.

Here's the play, for the curious. It does look like a better outfielder could have made the play easily. But I think he simply misread it. Had he read it correctly, he would have sprinted to the spot and then easily caught it without worrying about the fence. Instead, he is jogging and then surprised by the speed of the ball.

The Rangers should have baseballed better. Or cheated like the cheating cheater Astros who cheat.

Mariners in 2022! I am hopeful every year. 2001 was last time they made playoffs and won 116 regular season games that year (tied only by Cubs). Come on world help Mariners go all the way!

3rd generation Yankees fan and want to say 2 things:

1.) I root for the Mariners if the Yanks don’t make it and if either of them are out I root for the team to win less recently (or never). So I’m glad the Rangers just won.

2.) The Yankees did not win championships by buying other teams’ talent. That’s especially not how follow-up championships are won. You must develop talent and keep it. Derek Jeter, Mariano Rivera, and Andy Pettitte won all 5 Yankee championships from 1996-2009. Jorge Posada and Bernie Williams won 4 of 5. And players acquired by trade (which unlike free agency require a team to give something up other than just money): Paul O’Neill, and David Cone were also there for 4 of 5.

The Yankees haven’t won since 2009 because the only player worth a damn they’ve developed from 2010 to now is Aaron Judge and one player alone, no matter how dominant, cannot win a championship. Nor can two (look at the Angels with Trout and Ohtani).

It's a damn good thing no team from outside America has ever won the Series. That's all I have to say.

I cannot tell if you’re joking. If you mean North America, you are correct. If you mean outside of the USA, you are wrong. The Toronto Blue Jays won back-to-back championships in 1992 and 1993.
